Note: 大发彩票平台鈥檚 new Course Catalogue will replace the eCalendar. The Course Catalogue is expected to go live the week of April 22nd. When the new site is published, "mcgill.ca/study" will be redirected to the new Course Catalogue website.
Course information on this site is not reflective of offerings for the 2025鈥�2026 academic year. Some irregularities may occur as we move operations to the incoming Course Catalogue.
All tuition and fees assessed by the University must be paid in full or arrangements must be made to settle the debt.
Students' accounts are considered delinquent if they are not paid in full within 60 days after the bill is issued. 大发彩票平台 places a financial hold on these accounts, preventing students from obtaining official academic transcripts and from accessing Minerva for any registration functions. Other financial holds can affect access to non-registration functions, for example Meal Plan Top-Ups.
Interest: Interest is charged on overdue balances at the monthly rate of 1.24%, multiplied by the balance outstanding at the end of the month (14.88% annually). The rate is evaluated each Spring, and then is set for the following academic year. See mcgill.ca/student-accounts/your-account/deadlines-and-penalties/overdue for more information.
Note: You should regularly verify your account balance on Minerva.
The University has no obligation to issue any transcript of record, award any diploma, or re-register a student if you do not pay your tuition fees, library fees, residence fees, or loans by their due date.
If you register for a term, but still owe amounts from previous terms, you must either pay your previous term account balance or make payment arrangements with the Student Accounts Office before the end of the course add/drop period. If you have financial difficulty, first contact the Student Aid Office to discuss the possibility of obtaining financial aid:
If you fail to pay the previous term's fees or to make arrangements to settle your debt prior to the add/drop deadline, the University will cancel your registration in the current and subsequent terms.
When students fail to settle their debt or reach a suitable payment arrangement, or fail to provide the Student Accounts Office with up-to-date contact information, the University refers these delinquent accounts to a collection agency. If neither the University nor the collection agency is able to collect on the account, the University reserves the right to have the student reported to a credit bureau. You should be aware that the University is entitled to use all legal means to obtain payment and that students are responsible for all costs associated with such actions.
In accordance with the fee policy stated in Overdue Accounts, before the University cancels your current and subsequent term registration(s), the Student Accounts Office will make all reasonable efforts to notify you if your account is delinquent, or if you owe more than $100 from the previous term. The cancellation is effective the last day of the add/drop period unless you settle the account or make payment arrangements with the University by then. If you pay or make payment arrangements with the Student Accounts Office after the add/drop deadline and you want the University to reinstate your registration for the current or subsequent term(s), you must complete the Request for Reinstatement form (available at mcgill.ca/student-accounts/forms) and submit it to the Student Accounts Office, which will forward it to Enrolment Services for approval and processing. Your fee account will be charged a Reinstatement Penalty for the processing of the re-enrolment; exact fee amounts and further details are available on the Student Accounts website.
Acceptance of fees by the University in no way guarantees that students will receive academic permission to pursue their studies. If it is subsequently determined that your academic standing does not permit you to continue, all fees paid in advance will be refunded.
For directions on requesting your refund online in Minerva, see mcgill.ca/student-accounts/your-account/requesting-refund.
Deferred Admission: Students who defer their admission to the University will be subject to the tuition rates that are in effect for the term in which they are starting, and not the term in which they were originally admitted. This is of interest to International and Canadian non-Quebec resident students in particular programs where tuition rates have been guaranteed for the duration of their program as long as there is no break in enrolment or degree transfer.
Degree Transfers: International undergraduate students and students in non-research graduate programs who transfer degrees will be charged the tuition rate in effect for newly admitted students in the new degree in their term of transfer. Canadian non-Quebec resident students will be charged the tuition rate in effect for newly admitted students in their term of transfer.
Break in Enrolment: Quebec Residents may need to reprove their fee status if they have been absent (i.e., not enrolled) for more than two terms (not counting the Summer term). Students may verify their legal status in Minerva (select the appropriate term) to confirm that the QC residency status is still active. Terms for which students are recorded as being away on an officially approved leave of absence are not counted.
Canadian non-Quebec resident students who are absent (i.e., not enrolled) for more than three terms (including the summer term), will be charged the tuition rate in effect for newly admitted students in the term in which they resume their studies.
International students in undergraduate or graduate level non-research programs who are absent (i.e., not enrolled) for more than three terms (including the summer), will be charged the tuition rate in effect for newly admitted students in the term in which they resume their studies. A term of withdrawal from the University is included in the calculation of the break in enrolment when students are not charged tuition for that term. Terms for which students are registered on an officially approved leave of absence, exchange or study away program are not calculated as part of a break in enrolment. This policy is not applicable to Visiting and Special students as international students in these categories always pay the fees of the new academic year.
Students with Sponsors
If your fees will be paid by an outside agency such as the Department of Veterans Affairs, CIDA, a foreign government, or your University department (i.e., teaching assistants or demonstrators), you must have written proof of this sponsorship. Your sponsor must confirm the conditions of their sponsorship in writing on company letterhead to the University. This allows the University to initiate a contract with your sponsor and effect the payment to your fee account. You need to notify the University at least one month before the beginning of the term in which the contract takes effect. For more information and the required forms, see mcgill.ca/student-accounts/parents-and-sponsors/third-party-sponsorship.
When a third party agrees to pay fees on your behalf, payment is recorded on your fee account, which reduces the balance you must pay. The University reserves the right to insist upon payment. If the third party does not pay the promised fees within 90 days of invoicing, you are responsible for paying the fees plus the late payment fee and accrued interest.
Students in two programs are normally billed additional fees for their second program. Depending on the level of the two programs (e.g., one at the undergraduate level versus one at the graduate level), you may incur both society and faculty fees and/or additional tuition fees. Consult the Student Accounts website at mcgill.ca/student-accounts/tuition-fees/general-tuition-and-fees-information/exchange-senior-citizens-part-time-and-double-program for further details.
You should consult the Student Accounts Office at student.accounts [at] mcgill.ca for information on tuition fees. Adjustments to bills are made throughout the term in cases where fees cannot be automatically calculated.
If you are taking courses as part of the Quebec Inter-University Transfer (IUT) agreement, you are required to pay the fees at your home university; see Quebec Inter-University Transfer Agreement. The agreement covers only the transfer of academic credits.
IUT students taking courses at 大发彩票平台 are required to pay additional course charges that are compulsory upon registration, such as special activity charges, course material costs, or campus printing charges. Therefore, IUT students should familiarize themselves with e-billing in Billings and Due Dates for Continuing Studies Students to ensure that they do not miss critical payment deadlines.
The University reserves the right to refuse course registrations in non-government-funded activities.
